Sexual Ethics - WHOLE UNIT! (A-Level RS OCR)

This resources covers the applied ethics section of Sexual Ethics specifically for the OCR RS A-level, however it may be applicable to other boards also.

This is a complete unit of work including lesson PowerPoint covering the whole unit and a student booklet to accompany, filled with various different tasks and resources, such as case studies and exploration of key questions, to help support student-led learning.

This resource covers premarital, extramarital sex and homosexuality, primarily from a Christian perspective, considering different Christian views (e.g. Catholic and Anglican) as well as secular views.

The resource covers the influence of developments in religious beliefs and practices on debates about the morality, legality and tolerability of these areas of sexual ethics, including: Traditional Christian religious beliefs and practices (from any religious perspectives) regarding these areas of sexual ethics and how these beliefs and practices have changed over time; The impact of secularism on these areas of sexual ethics; Application of natural law, situation ethics, Kantian ethics and utilitarianism. There is also guided discussion on whether or not religious beliefs and practices concerning sex and relationships have a continuing role in the area of sexual ethics; whether choices in the area of sexual behaviour should be entirely private and personal, or whether they should be subject to societal norms and legislation ; and whether normative theories are useful in what they might say about sexual ethics.
